Benefits of technology

[0016]A method of preparing pentaerythritol according to the present invention is performed by combining high temperature condensation with cascade recrystallization seperation. The method lowers the energy consumption dramatically and improves the cost-effectiveness by carrying out the reaction in a non-low-temperature zone, and thereby avoiding the requirement for refrigeration. The method alleviates the difficulty of separation and improves the product quality by means of cascade separation proces...

Problems solved by technology

Abroad companies monopolize the product in this field.
The greatest defect of the method is that byproduct is complicated with large amount, and the reaction condition is hard to control.
As a result the yield of monopentaerythritol according to this patent is increased compared with continuous production, but the objections are also obvious: (1) reaction temperature is hard to control due to reaction heat concentrated in latter stage when performing the reaction in two stages, which results in partial overheating so as to increase side reactions; (2) yield of ...

example 1

[0018]The reaction solution with formaldehyde:acetaldehyde:alkaline=5.0:1:1.2 was prepared by dropping alkaline solution (32%) into the formaldehyde solution (12%) in 3 minutes after the pressure was stand at 0.2 Mpa by N2 and the initial temperature is at 45 t, then adding acetaldehyde solution (99%) in 80 minutes, and keeping the final temperature at 65° C. during the feeding by cycle cooling water. Thereafter, the solution was neutralized to pH=6 with formic acid, removed the redundant formaldehyde and methanol, crystallization solution was obtained by evaporation concentration, then pentaerythritol containing 91% monopentaerythritol was obtained with a single pass yield of 94.2%. Monopentaerythritol (98.3%) product was obtained by recrystallized the above pentaerythritol. The centrifuged mother liquor was filter, the filter residue was cascade dissolved-crystallized twice to obtain dipentaerythritol (93.3%). Rude sodium formate was obtained by concentrating crystallizing filtrat...

[0019]The reaction solution with formaldehyde:acetaldehyde:alkaline=6.0:1:1.1 was prepared by dropping alkaline solution (18%) into the formaldehyde solution (18%) for 3 minutes after the pressure was stand at 0.15 Mpa by N2 and the initial temperature is at 26° C., then adding acetaldehyde solution (80%) for 60 minutes, and keeping the final temperature at 70° C. during the feeding by cycle cooling water. Thereafter, the solution was neutralized to pH=6.4 with formic acid, removed the redundant formaldehyde and methanol, crystallization solution was obtained by evaporation concentration, then pentaerythritol containing 91.5% monopentaerythritol was obtained with a single pass yield of 93%. Monopentaerythritol (98.6%) product was obtained by recrystallized the above pentaerythritol. The centrifuged mother liquor was filter, the filter residue was cascade dissolved-crystallized twice to obtain dipentaerythritol (92.5%). Rude sodium formate was obtained by concentrating crystallizing ...

[0020]The reaction solution with formaldehyde:acetaldehyde:alkaline=7.7:1:1.06 was prepared by dropping alkaline solution (45%) into the formaldehyde solution (20%) for 2 minutes after the pressure was stand at 0.1 Mpa by N2 and the initial temperature is at 45 t, then adding acetaldehyde solution (89%) for 40 minutes, and keeping the final temperature at 60° C. during the feeding by cycle cooling water. Thereafter, the solution was neutralized to pH=6.2 with formic acid, removed the redundant formaldehyde and methanol, crystallization solution was obtained by evaporation concentration, then pentaerythritol containing 93% monopentaerythritol was obtained with a single pass yield of 93.5%. Monopentaerythritol (99.3%) product was obtained by recrystallized the above pentaerythritol.

Abstract

A method of preparing monopentaerythritol, dipentaerthritol, and sodium formate through high temperature condensation and cascade recrystallization is disclosed. The method lowers the energy consumption dramatically and improves the cost-effectiveness by carrying out the reaction in a non-low-temperature zone, and thereby avoiding the requirement for refrigeration. The method alleviates the difficulty of separation and improves the product quality by means of cascade separation process, and thereby avoiding the low purity from a single separation. In addition, the mother liquor obtained after each separation step is recycled to the previous step as the recycling liquor, which avoids discharging waste, increases the product yield and lowers raw materials consumption.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a method of preparing pentaerythritol, and more particularly to a method of preparing monopentaerythritol, dipentaerthritol, and byproduct sodium formate through high temperature condensation and cascade recrystallization.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Pentaetythritol is a kind of polyalcohol, widely used in synthetic resin, plasticizer, lubricating oil, explosive, and so on. It is suitable for use in coating furniture and walls for its good dumb light property. It keeps large and increasing demand, especially for high quality(concentration is more than 98%) pentaerythritol. Abroad companies monopolize the product in this field.[0003]At present methods for preparing pentaerythritol is: reacting formaldehyde with acetaldehyde under alkaline condition into pentaerythritol and formate corresponding to the base, isolating and purifying further. The greatest defect of the method is that byproduct is complicated with large amount, and the reactio...
